How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Watch House Green
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are chips and rust in more than one place and wear marks under the taps.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Watch House Green
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Wear marks under the taps
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Stains that will not shift

What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Should you replace it?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Read our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Never use suction bath mats
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Watch House Green. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A photo taken from further back
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Watch House Green, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
